Sick of the same old dinners? This blog can help! Anyone can post a recipe as long as it meets this criteria:
1. Cost less that $20 to make
2. You have a picture to post with it (cause we HAVE to be able to see what you made)
3. Only uses ingredients that are readily available to purchase :)
4. Takes under an hour to make (crockpot/oven cook time don't factor into that)
That's all. Cook, take pictures, post and enjoy!!

Uglies

First, a disclaimer. I got the original recipe from here and altered it. It's not the most attractive dinner (hence the name, which is kind of fun) but it's pretty good as is and has incredible potential for variation. Really they're a little like mini, cheese-covered pot pies.

Brown your meat in a good-sized skillet with the onion and garlic. Drain grease and add chopped vegetables. Cook 3 or 4 minutes or until your veg starts to get tender. Add bbq sauce, stir, simmer for 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, separate the biscuits and put them in a muffin tin, pressing a well into the center (the original recipe serves 8, I made my own dough and separated it into 12 segments so I filled the whole tin). Try an make it so that the biscuit is even on all sides (it can stick over the top). Drop meat/veg mixture in to the biscuit wells until they're full. Cover the tops with cheese.

Bake 15 mins or until cheese is golden brown.

NOTE: I ended up with extra filling, and I filled mine to the top. You could easily stretch it instead and make 18 of these to feed a group, maybe even 2 dozen.
